New issue 8 by gustavodn: pyTwerp should take the password by other ways
http://code.google.com/p/pytwerp/issues/detail?id=8

Currently pyTwerp takes the password only by the --password option. This is

users on 'ps' output (with some luck), etc.

It should take the password by reading it on non-echoed standard input.
Other alternatives are allowing a missing --password option when creating
the twerprc file, so the user can edit the file manually, or providing a
template twerprc so the user can fill it securely, ...
